I tried booting 4.2 i386 images (amd64 did not work) on my macbook. In every case (bsd.rd, bsd and bsd.mp) I got the following as the first kernel message: "kbc: cmd word write error" For all kernels, I enabled acpi and disabled apm.
I have noticed that this seems to happen for every kernel, but with my Macbook Pro (Core Duo) it has not caused any issues with the keyboard. I remember that there have been some issues with the Macbooks and their keyboards. Most users reported that using an external keyboard (most used usb) solved the issues. I believe that this is probably the only way that you will be able to get your Macbook running properly, unless someone has fixed this. I would love to have more information on Macbooks and their issues, so that I can update my guide. If you happen to find another solution that does not involve external keyboards, please let me know.
